Abstract (en)

A damping force generator (40) includes: a valve body (66) having a compression-side inlet port (66c) into which the oil pushed by the piston (12) flows; and a compression-side damping valve (65) provided so as to block a port outlet and elastically deformed according to pressure of the oil flowing into the compression-side inlet port (66c) to thereby exhibit damping force. An opening cross-sectional area (A1) of a port inlet opening (79A) is larger than a passage cross-sectional area (A0) of the compression-side inlet port (66c).
